            <ul>
              <li>We believe that two approaches need to be combined to
build better software:</li>
              <ul>

              <li>We believe that the project team as a whole is
responsible for the quality and success of a software project.</li>
              <li>We are focused on the viable achievement of software
quality with a practitioners approach, instead of certain process
models or standards.</li>
              <li>We believe that software development will always be

in the project team. </li>
